Reference Section
4 Press the shutter-release button all the way,
and release it.
• The I icons showing the panorama direction are
displayed.
5 Move the camera straight and slowly in one
of the four directions to start shooting.
• When the camera detects the panorama direction, the
shooting starts.
• The guide showing the current shooting point is
displayed.
• When the guide showing the shooting point reaches
the end, the shooting ends.
Example of moving the camera
• The operator, without shifting operation, moves the camera, from end to end, horizontally or
vertically in an arc.
• If about 15 seconds (in Normal (180°)) or 30 seconds (in Wide (360°)) pass from the start of the
shooting, and before the guide showing the shooting point reaches the end, the shooting ends.
B Notes on Easy Panorama Shooting
• The image area seen in the saved image will be narrower than that seen on the monitor at the
time of shooting.
• When the camera movement speed is too fast, there is a large amount of camera shake or there is
little change in subject such as wall or in the dark, the shooting ends in an error.
• Panorama pictures are not saved when the shooting stops before reaching half of the panorama
range.
• When the shooting reaches more than half of the panorama range but finishes before the end
point, the range that is not shot will be recorded as a gray area.
